Evander Holyfield Hates, Bails on Dr. Phil

He felt he was totally man-bashing him."Whatever...

Golf Channel Anchor Cries Over Tiger Woods Apology

Many people, including two Tiger Woods mistresses, were unimpressed by the golfer's mea culpa, his first comments since his seedy, cheating ways were exposed.Some viewers, however, were captivated by the athlete's words. So profoundly, in fact, that Woods' Friday morning apology speech actually drove them to tears.Really.In a Golf Channel studio immediately following the press conference, one analyst got so choked up by Woods coming clean that he just couldn't keep it together.It's amazing, the stark contrast in reaction to Woods' comments. If you have a vested interest in his return to golf, you loved it. If not, you're likely a bit cynical.This dude definitely fits into the former category ...Crying Over Ti...

Michelle Obama Invites Glee Cast to The White House

We may have finally found an issue on which Democrats and Republicans can agree:Michelle Obama has invited the Glee cast to the White House because she's a big fan of this Fox musical comedy. Entertainment Weekly says the show is ready to accept an invitation to sing at the annual Easter Egg hunt on the residence's front lawn.It will take place on April 5.As far as we know, Glee has never featured a Down's Syndrome character whose mother is the former Governor of Alaska.So Sarah Palin will need to find something else about the show to pretend to be offended by in order to remain in the news. The series actually does depict a knocked-up teenager.Perhaps...

Tim Gunn Slams Kardashian Klothing Line

So far, THG readers seem generally impressed by the Kardashian clothing line. Check out a sample from it NOW.But don't count Project Runway star Tim Gunn among those impressed by Kim, Kourtney and Khloe's stylings.

I’m sorry I’m sounding like an old farty snob, but it bothers me," he said during New York Fashion Week.If it makes the reality stars feel any better, Gunn doesn't have anything positive to say about the clothes worn by Jersey Shore cast members, either."Don’t even get me started. It is not a style to emulate. I know...

The Bachelor Recap: Women Tell All, Trash Rozlyn

The traditional pre-season finale "Women Tell All" reunion special of The Bachelor is always mostly filler - and a total misnomer, as they really tell surprisingly little.Still, there were fireworks as Rozlyn Papa returned to confront Chris Harrison and the stage was set for next week's epic Tenley Molzahn-Vienna Girardi showdown.As always, THG endured two freaking hours of the colon-tastic The Bachelor: On the Wings of Love: The Women Tell All to recap all the action in our +/- system:Jake said self-defecating when he meant self-deprecating. Plus 3.Wes Hayden of last season's Bachelorette is back for some reason. He says he's getting "a thousand...

Michael Jackson's embattled former doctor, who is being charged in connection with the King of Pop's June death, feels officials are being shady with evidence.Dr. Conrad Murray's legal team believes the L.A. County D.A.'s Office is "suspiciously slow" in sharing documents from the involuntary manslaughterinvestigation.As one Murray source puts it, "The prosecution had eight months to accumulate their evidence and we still haven't received it. Something here just isn't right."That is strange, we'll grant the doc that.Dr. Murray was charged earlier this month and his defense team has not ruled out a plea bargain in the case.

Tony Kornheiser Suspended by ESPN for Criticizing Hannah Storm

This is just silly.Tony Kornheiser, a former Washington Post columnist and ESPN radio show host, has been suspended by the network for criticizing the wardrobe of SportsCenter anchor Hannah Storm.Last week, Kornheiser opened his show by critiquing the clothing Storm donned while she hosted a morning edition of SportsCenter. His exact words:Hannah Storm in a horrifying, horrifying outfit today. She's got on red go-go boots and a catholic school plaid skirt. Way too short for somebody in her 40s or maybe early 50s by now. And she's got on her typically very, very tight shirt. So she looks like she's got sausage casing wrapping around her upper...
